Thanks for this post. User at our company have been getting the Q10 and Z10. No issues with the Z10 so far, however the Q10 has been a nightmare. Users have to reboot their phone anytime they want new emails. It will work for a short period of time, then bang, no emails come through. Blackberry need to fix this issue, fast!!!
